Rock and Roll Astral Projection

I stayed in last night and watched Muppets in Space. At one point, after receiving a message from his breakfast cereal, Gonzo goes up on the roof and gets struck by lightning. His consciousness flies off through the universe and is talking to some floating cosmic fish who tell him his fortune before being projected back into his body.

I didn’t realize until last night the similarties between GG Allin and Animal. Which came first? I’m assuming Animal. I wonder if GG found Animal to be a big inspiration?
